Sagging front bumper

[schnell]

heya..i've got an issue with my front bumper for my e90 pfl. its a kerscher front bumper which i inherited from the previous owner and the middle grill portion seems to be sagging abit as i am able to see a gap between the top grill plates and the main grill.

is this an issue with brackets for the bumper loosening or is it due to the warping of the bumper itself.

any advice? is the bodyshop able to rectify it for me or do i need to get a new bumper?

tks!

Re: Sagging front bumper

screw loose. go any spray painting shop, tia and re-screw the whole bumper. Small job unless you go PML they will tell u whole engine need to change cos bumper and engine go together one

Re: Sagging front bumper

Is this a recent thing or the sag already there when you bought it?

Should just be a fitting issue lah.

By the way, nice car

Re: Sagging front bumper

tks MW. i only noticed it when i changed to the cf bonnet. the original one was a tight and i mean tight fit...dunno if the previous owner bend the original bonnet to cover up the gap. so with the new cf bonnet on, the gap became quite visible...sian

that is why i am trying to ascertain if its a bumper fitment issue (which is a bummer which means i need to get a new bumper or bodykit) or if the bumper can be kicked in place haha..

Re: Sagging front bumper

Huh.,,,,it may be due to your cf bonnet not to dimension or warp but I believe there is some adjustment possible at the bumper side to make them flush. Like what MW say just pay a visit to the painting shop guys for advice.

Re: Sagging front bumper

CF bonnet? Then high chance it could be a fitment issue liao. Some after market bonnets have bad fitment, and I mean VERY bad...

Re: Sagging front bumper

can't be leh...i bought it off a guy who had it flush on his car. its also a original vorsteiner bonnet..

its juz the front end that seems to be sagging...i show u the pics from the side

i guess i better go down to the car body shop to have a look...any good ones to recommend?
